  "textContent": "Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for supplying power, including short circuit protection. One example power supply circuit generally includes a switching regulator including an output coupled to a first power supply node, a battery node for coupling to a battery, a switch coupled between the first power supply node and the battery node, a first transistor including a gate coupled to the first power supply node and a source coupled to a reference potential node of the power supply circuit, and a first current source or a resistive element, coupled between a power supply rail and a drain of the first transistor. The power supply circuit may be configured to detect a short circuit on the first power supply node and trigger an automatic fault protection (AFP) mode after completion of a soft start of a voltage on the first power supply node.",
